The story of the film The Candidate takes place during two months of campaigning before a non-specific presidential election in one specific country. The author of the diary entries has no idea for whom he is recording the eavesdropping and enthusiasm for an interesting job in which he follows a bishop, a crazy owner of an advertising agency and a bland presidential candidate with the eloquent name Peter Potôň and an even sweeter-sounding family history, soon give way to disgust and confusion. His diary becomes a file with transcripts of conversations, information about characters and characters, emails, scraps from psychiatric medical records and pictures, which he scribbles at first out of boredom, later because words and rational explanations are no longer enough. The candidate is a political farce, a sad-funny depiction of what happened, is happening, and could very easily happen in this small country.

Marek is a failed basketball coach whose disabled son dreams of participating in the Paralympics in Rio. Unable to field a team of disabled athletes, Marek resorts to fraud and, under the influence of a slightly crazy neighbor, hires able-bodied basketball players to fake their disabilities. Together with his unsuspecting wife, he and his "dream team" set off for Rio, and it is only under the hot Brazilian sun that Marek realizes how karma is catching up with him and that even the best sporting performance may not be enough to escape it. The film Dream Team is not only full of crazy comic situations, but also tells the story of personal honor and the power of parental love.

Inspired by true events of the 1989 Czech and Slovak Velvet Revolution and Václav Havel's controversial release of 23000 prisoners. In addition to the story of three families affected by communist persecution, the film Amnesty also deals with the uprising of prisoners in Leopoldov, which required military intervention. The uprising was preceded by a broad amnesty granted by Václav Havel in January 1990, just a few days after his election as Czechoslovak president.

A story about a young photographer who takes photos of animals at some time in the future. Whilst using an old camera, she catches them in their natural environment and shows their beauty. But… can you imagine what beauty we can expect at the end of evolution?

The film DOGG presents four radical author short stories that will get under your skin. Four directors, four screenwriters and four cameramen created a bizarre illusion of tension and diverse anxiety in separate stories. The short story DUET confronts you with the current threat of growing terrorism and our fear of the unknown. In the second short OPUS DEI, we find ourselves in a horror story, in an old abandoned house that hides a dark secret from the 2nd World War. The third and most controversial short story GRASSVATER forces you to look away from the screen – you are looking at scenes from eastern Slovakia, which are presented very expressively, without embellishments in all their ugliness. There are drugs, mafia, intrigue and a panopticon of characters. The last, visually refined, short story GAME raises the question of where the boundaries of television entertainment end and how far we are willing to go.
